Read this excerpt from "A Drop in the Bucket." In one of the Smithsonian’s curation rooms, she carefully places "Diane France's

brain" on a table and props it up around the edges with clay. But the clay doesn't stick to the table, and the brain loses its shape. That's no good. Next, she tries putting the brain in a pan and smooshes clay around the inside edge of the container. Still no good. Finally, after more trial and error, Diane grabs a stainless steel bowl—just like the one in her kitchen—and presses clay in a ring around the curved bottom. She adds a layer of formalin-soaked paper towels to keep the bottom of the brain damp. Then, she carefully nestles the brain in the ring. It works! The brain holds its shape as she coats the top with a liquid form of silicone rubber. The rubber hardens to make one-half of a mold. Which detail from the excerpt identifies a problem? “But the clay doesn’t stick to the table, and the brain loses its shape.” “Next, she tries putting the brain in a pan and smooshes clay around the inside edge.” “She adds a layer of formalin-soaked paper towels to keep the bottom of the brain damp.” “Finally, after more trial and error, Diane grabs a stainless steel bowl.”

Using the actions you have noted for Grendel and Beowulf, discuss how their actions in battle reflect the qualities of heroes an
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

  • There are always two sides of a story, an antagonist who serves the purpose of harming of the society and has the ambitions that can some how damage the over all peace and prosperity of the region, as inside this story Grendel is the monster who imposes threat to the different individuals across the globe and has a very bad or negative image. While Beowulf serves a much greater ambition by being there for the people to fight against this monster and then leading them against many odds to the way of virtue and development.And as he adds more value to it by doing great deeds that would be remembered across the generations and many would recognize these acts as the deeds of great valor.
  • As, the two of them are still remembered in one of the greatest fiction and being there in a place that still we remember Beowulf as a warrior of greater strength and courage. While, Grendel is there as sign for those who wants to harm any being and his story is very good moral for them and to learn much from the evil and good inside the story.

What does an argument relies on?
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

An argument relies on a comparison of two things

Explanation:

Many arguments rely on an analogy between two or more objects, ideas, or situations. If the two things that are being compared aren’t really alike in the relevant respects, the analogy is a weak one, and the argument that relies on it commits the fallacy of weak analogy.

Analogy: a comparison between two things, typically for the purpose of explanation or clarification.
